Norfolk Record Office
The official YouTube channel for the Norfolk Record Office.
We collect and preserve unique archives relating to the history of Norfolk and make them accessible across the world. We hold material from c.1090 up to the present day, including business records such as Caleys and Boardman and Son, society records such as Women's Institutes, and large estate records such as Duleep Singh of Elveden Hall and Ketton-Cremer Family of Felbrigg Hall. In addition, we hold many documents useful to family historians and those tracing the history of their house, such as wills, parish registers and tithe maps.
Check out our videos for a glimpse into our archives.
